After much anticipation and hoping from fans, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword now has a new home in beautiful HD on the Switch. The game brings many changes, including fast travel with the Zelda & Loftwing amiibo, but the biggest is the option for button controls rather than motion. With the new controls for the Switch, it's easy to forget how to perform basic in-game tasks, so this guide is here to refresh fans on how to perform the Spin Attack.

The Spin Attack is an iconic attack from The Legend of Zelda franchise, and it comes back in Skyward Sword HD. It helps the player to defeat foes when surrounded and cut down grass for rewards. It can come in handy, making it even more important to remember how to do it depending on how fans choose to play the title.

For players who opted to play it just like how it was on the Wii, the Spin Attack only needs a few flicks of the Joy-Con controller. Fans can shake their Joy-Con quickly in the order of left-right-left for the attack to activate. Just a quick and simple motion will deal Link's enemies in an instant, making it very useful in a pinch.

If fans weren't fond of the motion controls from the first release of this Legend of Zelda title, the Switch rerelease has their back with the option to play with just the buttons. For the Spin Attack with the button set-up, players can simply move the right Joy-Con control stick left-right-left for the Spin Attack to deal its damage. Once again the input is very simple, so fans should make sure to use it with it at their disposal.

The Spin Attack will help players massively with the monsters and bosses of Skyward Sword. The game is filled with many trials for players to overcome, as expected of a Zelda title. For both new and returning Zelda fans playing through the game on Switch, while mastering the combat may be useful, the puzzles of the title may prove to still be a challenge.

For those struggling with collecting, there's a guide about Earth Temple Key piece locations and more for them to refer to. As players explore the land and story of Skyloft, guides like these are here to help any of them who end up getting stuck.
